Slitty eyes.

Honda engineers have been thinking about the human face. A lot. "The human brain," their 2005 study explains, "exhibits a strong response to facial patterns, especially to the eyes and mouth." The observation led to the extrapolation that human-looking bikes are more quickly recognized by motorists, making them more easily avoided.
